A bit of lace, speckled yarn, and a soft warm collar all add up to lots of fun. The sample was made with Three Irish Girls Adorn Sport in the gorgeous Kaleidoscope colorway. But, of course, it would be just as adorable in stripes or solids. Let your imagination go to create your own Kaleidoscope.

The poncho is worked in one piece from the front lace edging to the back lace edging. The neckline stitches are picked up to work the collar.
